For the overall school I like the availability of programs and classes. The school seems to be very helpful to students. I like the campus and the facilities are up to date. It would be nice to have a few more options for summer course.

I liked the fact that I could choose courses to fit my schedule of work and home duties. The instructors were very helpful and caring. They were also very knowledgeable. I especially liked my Medical Terminology instructor. She made us learn all of the terms in the textbook and most of the exercises dealing with medical records. I would advise prospective students to have a good idea of what they want to major in and to be sure to look over the CCC course catalog. They should try to find courses and schedules that will not conflict too much with their family life and job if they are going to work and go to school. Sacrifices do have to be made but you can schedule some of your classes accordingly.
